And, by the way, thanks for the tip!
ITASoftware allows you to search within a 300-mile radius of your selected airports. Somewhere around Flyertalk, someone came up with a string of airport codes you could type in, and by selecting the 'within 300 miles' option, it would search all airports in the US.
